Box Score
MONTGOMERY, Ala.-The Belhaven women's soccer team ran into a roadblock at 23rd ranked Auburn University-Montgomery Wednesday afternoon, falling to the Warhawks 5-0 in Southern States Athletic Conference play. The Blazers were shutdown on offense by a smothering AUM defense that gave up only four shots on the afternoon. The Warhawks blasted 23 shots when they controlled the ball.

Auburn-Montgomery (10-4-2, 5-4-1 SSAC) cracked the scoreboard with two goals in the first half starting with an Alexandria Sveindottir shot that found the back of the net in the 16th minute. Christine Kelly setup up the play with a perfect pass that allowed Sveindottir to get free on a breakaway in the middle of the field. Sveindottir made a quick move past goalkeeper Nicole Walsh and had a wide open net in front of her.

The Warhawks added to their 1-0 advantage in the 39th minute when Maria Ros Arngrimsdottir headed the ball over Walsh who was charging out to challenge the shot. Unfortunately, she didn't get there in time and AUM took a 2-0 edge into halftime.

Despite a rough first half, Belhaven (6-11, 4-6 SSAC) stayed in striking distance down by just two goals. However, that all changed in the 62nd minute when the Warkhawks scored the first of three goals that would occur over the next six minutes of the match. Dagmar Gunnarsdottir beat Walsh with a quick move to tuck the ball into the corner of the net for a 3-0 lead. Arngrimsdottir was credited with the assist leading to the one on one opportunity for Gunnarsdottir.

Arngrimsdottir fired in the fourth goal of the match for AUM in the 63rd minute off an assist by Nicole Letford followed by a goal from Eyrun Rakel Agnarsdottir in the 68th minute to cap the game. Gunnarsdottir earned the assist on the Agnarsdottir score.

Saje Pernie had the only shot on goal for Belhaven in the 36th minute when goalkeeper Holly Clarke stepped in front of the ball to preserve the shutout. It would be the only shot attempt Clarke would have to save on the afternoon. Torri Ladd, Chelsea Smith, and Jordan Organ had the other three shots for the Blazers in the match. Walsh ended the game with three saves for Belhaven.

Margret Albertsdottir led the Warhawks with seven shots although she did not score. Arngrimsdottir paced the team in goals with two.

Belhaven will wrap up the regular season on Saturday when the Blazers matchup with William Carey University in an SSAC showdown at H.T. Newell Field. Saturday's kickoff is slated for 5:00 PM.
